These few keys to a successful fibreglass repair.
Look first: Inspect the damaged fibreglass thoroughly, mark the damaged area clearly, and confirm what material it is and decide if the repair is the best course of action.
Preparation is crucial: To ensure you have the highest chance of a successful repair preparing the bonding surface by removing damaged material, paint and grease/dirt will ensure you have a well prepared surface for the fibreglass to bond to.
Make a plan: Prepare before you start the repair by having the correct materials for the job so you don’t make more work for yourself than is necessary. I have included a complete materials list below for your benefit.
Review your work: After you’ve made a structural repair, be sure that you inspect the part prior to putting it back into service. After you’ve made a cosmetic finish, spend the extra time to make sure it shines. Structural repairs must be tested before you put them back into service, I’ll be taking this kayak down to the local dam to make sure the hull stays waterproof and the weight is balanced after adding more fibreglass to the hull.
